How is this different than the follow button used on @Anywhere? http://dev.twitter.com/anywhere/begin

EDIT - It seems the flow is a little different. The user doesn't have to connect to the site first; it's just a one-click thing if you're already logged in. Pretty cool, except it seems a little buggy if you have SSL enabled on your Twitter account.

I had some issues rendering the follow button with HTTPS only enabled too. After a couple of page refreshes it seemed to start working.
